‘The book Buying AI hits a blind spot in the legal debate on the use of AI in public administration. Up to now, there has been extensive discussion about the lack of transparency of AI decisions, loss of control on the part of the administration and deficits in the rule of law. This has largely ignored the fact that public procurement law already provides a sophisticated set of legal instruments to ensure that contracting authorities can procure transparent, controllable systems that comply with the rule of law. This great volume examines and compares current procurement practice and the legal framework for procuring safe AI systems in selected member states, embedded in general considerations on the use of AI in public administration.’
